A vintage ebony violin tuning peg is the basis of this funky Lantern Fly brooch. It has been painted a vibrant pink, carved, distressed, and is embellished with hand cut and pierced abalone celluloid wings with a textured brass wing shield with blue enamel paint details. The body leg section is hand fabrication in brass, and is completed with blue Czech glass eyes. Fun and funky, this pin is fit with a stainless steel fibula pin stem allowing it to not only be great for lapels and sweaters, but also is great for shawl and wrap closures! It will also stand on a tabletop propped by the open pin stem.   3.5 x 2 x 0.5”.
